Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Favorite Fall Fashion Trends on a Budget

November 2, 2014 by Katie Haller

I absolutely love fall fashion! It’s my favorite time of the year for putting together cute outfits.  That’s why I want to share my top 5 favorite looks for fall this year, and also where to find them for a great price!

1.) Denim
I love the denim look in the fall.  I’ve always loved a classic pair of blue jeans, but this fall I am going beyond just my jean pants.  I’ve been mixing up my outfits with my jean jacket and denim button-down shirt.  I am just loving this look! 

Left: LC Lauren Conrad, Kohls $10  Top Right: Jessica Simpson, Meijer $10  Bottom Left: Target $16
2.) Button-down blouse with a boyfriend cardigan sweater
I am just loving this layered look for fall this year!  You’ll see I have this look pinned over and over again on My Style board on Pinterest. I can’t get enough of it!
 Blouse: Target $16  Sweater: Target $16
3.) Scarves
Scarves are not just something you wear in the winter to keep your neck warm.  They are a fun way of dressing up any of your everyday outfits.
Left: Kohls $5  Center: Charming Charlie $5  Right: Old Navy $7

4.) Boots
I love boots in the fall.  Riding boots, ankle boots or rain boots, it doesn’t matter.  I just love wearing boots!
Left: DSW $50 (originally $200)  Center: Kohls $12  Right: Target $30

5.) Trench Coats
I’ve always loved a classic double-breasted trench coat. It is a must-have in my closet. I have a black and a khaki trench coat. I get a lot of use out of them this time of the year.  They are perfect for any occasion. 
Left: Old Navy $15  Right: Forever 21 $30

Where can you find these looks for a great price?

  • Denim- You can find denim almost anywhere right now.  Target, Kohls and Old Navy are my favorite places to find cute denim for a great price.  Be sure to check out their sales and clearance sections.
  • Button Down Blouse- I like to look at thrift stores for blouses.  I have found some gently worn button down blouses from stores like Express and Banana Republic, at the Salvation Army, for only $5 or less.  It’s definitely worth a shot to look.  If you don’t have any luck at a thrift store, there is always the clearance section at Target!
  • Boyfriend Cardigan Sweaters- Target is my favorite place to buy these sweaters.  They start around $19.99, but I like to buy them when they go on clearance or when I see a sale for them.  Don’t forget about your Cartwheel app.  They often have these sweaters on special with the app!
  • Boots- Whether you are looking for ankle boots or riding boots, it’s always a good idea to wait until you see a great sale.  They run a few sales in the fall, but the closer you get to Christmas, and even better, after the holidays, you start to see boots on sale everywhere.  Target, DSW and Kohls are great places to look after the holidays. 
  • Scarves- Scarves are everywhere in the fall.  With the winter months right around the corner, stores are stocking up on their heavy winter scarves.  Now is a great time to find light weight scarves on sale in the clearance section.  I’ve had good luck at Charming Charlie and Old Navy.
  • Trench Coats- Old Navy is a great place to find inexpensive coats for any season.  They always have great sales this time of the year!  Forever 21 is also my go to store when I’m looking for an expensive look, with an affordable price.

My best advise for finding the best fall trends on a budget, is to always keep your eyes open.  You never know when or where you will find an amazing deal!

I have another round up of cozy outfits! I have to admit that I have been in a bit of a style rut! The lack of sunshine has made it really hard for me to feel motivated to get creative with my outfits and I've been finding myself repeating the same clothes over and over again. 

That's why this week I built each outfit around one piece in my wardrobe that I haven't worn in a while. I have a lot of clothes and sometimes rediscovering pieces that I love help my outfits feel more fun and creative!
